MS Dhoni and Devon Conway
Devon Conway, Chennai Super Kings opener will be unavailable for selection for the next one week as he left for South Africa for his wedding to fiancée Kim Watson. The team might not miss his services so much as he only appeared in one game so far for CSK.
Devon Conway will rejoin the team on April 24. But before rejoining the camp, he will have to undergo a 3-day isolation and clear protocols. CSK signed him for INR 1 crore.
He had made his IPL debut for CSK in the opening game against Kolkata Knight Riders. But in that match, he only scored 3 runs and was dropped just after one game and since then Ruturaj Gaikwad and Robin Uthappa started opening for CSK.
The 30-year-old has played 20 matches for his country and scored 602 runs at an average of 50.16. He has four fifties in his T20 career and the highest run is 99 not out.
